Far From That Sweetheart of Mine - Lyrics ========================== The good lord he did send me To the mountains blue And blessed me a mighty claim But I met a girl called Lucy Who had eyes for gold So she went just as fast and she came I woke up a morning And that women she'd gone And she didn't leave me a dime So I'm leaving for Kentucky Down the old gold trail Far from that sweetheart of mine The good lord did send me A trapping for fur And made me a tidy sum When back came pretty lucy I was back with her Till she took all my pelts and ran I woke up a morning And that women she'd gone And she didn't leave me a dime So I'm leaving for Kentucky Down the old gold trail Far from that sweetheart of mine The good lord he did send me To taking honest work in a hardware store so fine When in walked pretty lucy With a child in her arms And she did say he was mine I woke up a morning And that women she'd gone But she left me a mighty son So each day I bless lucy and I thank the lord For the wonders he has done Thanks, Greg
